A php script for generating iTunes-compatible podcast feeds.
Can optionally use the getID3 library for reading information about each file from the audio ID3 tags.
- Place feed.php anywhere on your server. Optionally download the latest version of getID3 and place it somewhere nearby.
- Edit the configuration variables in feed.php to match your server set up. All audio files must be within the same directory.
- The URL to feed.php is your feed url. Submit this to iTunes & enjoy.
Without getID3 enabled, the script will output file data of the form
<item>
<title>some_file.mp3</title>
